Morgana stood there, observing the girl as she took her time answering the question. The girl seemed to take her time with words, as if she were choosing them carefully and wisely.

"I don't know what brings me here, I followed that which led me. Maybe it was to meet you."

The fact that Morgana's button-pushing had no affect on Illumina, almost seemed to make Morgana twitch with angst. Did anything get to this girl?

Yet, despite her eagerness to really chew at Illumina's core, the Rideon's answer stunned her... Maybe she was right... Maybe their paths had crossed for a reason... For a moment, the girl pondered reasons why... Could it have been possible that a force beyond Alliora had placed the two at the same place for something to happen.

Maybe they were here to make peace between the kingdoms... or maybe they were here to battle it out... See which kingdom is more fit to rule the land.

The thought passed quickly though, Morgana didn't believe in fate, or coincidence. To her it was a bunch of nonsense. Her father had ingrained the thought into her head that nothing was coincidental, and nothing was fateful. Her eyes squinted as she stepped forward towards Illumina.

"Perhaps." She finally answered, deciding to take the bait of Illumina's statement, "But for what reason? Why would we both be here at the same time?" Morgana felt like she was prying teeth from Illumina as she continually spat out questions.
